Feng Shui<br />
Your Garden<br />
Feng Shui Consultant Janine Lowe<br />
explains how to Feng Shui<br />
your garden in time for<br />
summer garden party season<br />
It’s garden party season and this year we can<br />
enjoy bringing as many people as we like<br />
into our homes and gardens. So here are my<br />
top tips for garden prosperity.<br />
Find the centre of your garden<br />
You need to find the centre of your garden and<br />
stand with a compass in your hand with no<br />
jewellery on. I always find the old-fashioned<br />
compasses work better but if you only have an<br />
iPhone that will do.<br />
How do you find the centre of the garden? Walk<br />
the length of the garden counting your steps, for<br />

garden and count the steps, for example 10 steps.<br />
Then all you have to do is walk seven steps from<br />

steps from the edge of the garden width and there<br />
you have it, you now know where to stand.<br />
Find the south<br />
Find the south which is at 180 degrees. This<br />
is an auspicious / favourable area this year and<br />
the perfect place to position your BBQ. A good<br />
colour for this area is red. Fill it full of red plants<br />
with big round green leaves and small trees if<br />
the area allows. I find using pots is the easiest<br />
thing to do especially if you have a small garden.<br />
Ensure the chef has a red apron to enhance their<br />
luck working in this area. And if you want some<br />
extra good fortune, spend time with the chef<br />
when he is cooking and make sure he / she is<br />
well looked after.<br />
Head northeast<br />
If you’d like more wealth / knowledge (and who<br />
wouldn’t), you’ll find this in the northeast of<br />
your garden. Spend time in this area and design<br />
it as an area of contemplation. Add a chair and<br />
/ or a water feature, make this area lush with<br />
